    Does sport run in YOUR family?

    Whilst deleting any, uhm--"personal documents" from my old work machine, I re-discovered this gem of a screenshot taken earlier this year:

     Does sport run in your family
     

    It would appear todays happy-go-lucky stone throwers are breeding much more angry and aggressive stone throwers.  May FSM help us all!

    Funniest thing I've ever seen on this site. Can't stop staring at the cartoon faces.

     

    P.C.P.S.: I know that the story itself is not funny. I've been made kinda-immune to stuff like that. Living in a 3rd world country does that to you. I actively refuse to follow news on grounds that they endanger my sanity.

    I may or may not have meant what I've said above.

    I feel bad for the two woman though. Though it is an amazing banner placement...

    I guess when SPORT runs in your family you need places to practice... like a public execution.

    When I first looked at this ad I had a strange initial thought. It seemed like a typo where the ad should actually read "does spot run your family"...spot being the name of the family dog. Based on that, the picture looked like a father and son holding up "spot's" leavings....just my 2cents...

    I just went looking for it: http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,21420181-38195,00.html

    I got an American Express ad instead :( Is the sport ad a Telstra ad?

    And I got an ad for shoes.  It's (mostly) random.  If you reload the page 10 times, you'll get 10 more different ads.  the next one I got was for New Zealand.

    New Zealand needs to put up banners on the web so that people know of it? Or are they selling New Zealand?

    Heh, it was an ad for tourism.  They claim to be the youngest country on the planet.
